1. Power consumption figures vary with your PSU’s efficiency, the ambient operating temperature and the accuracy of the power meter.

2. PSU: A power supply unit is not included, and you will need to provide an ATX PSU. There are 3 PCI-e connectors for +12V DC input on each hash board and ALL of the 3 are required. Do not connect more than one PSU to the same hashing board! You can still connect different modules with different PSUs.

3. Separate power supply to control board: there is one additional 6pin PCI-e connector on the IO board which must be connected to PSU to get power. When using several PSUs, be sure to power the hash boards first and the control board only after the hash boards have been powered.

The three modules are linked together and operated with one controller board located on the middle unit. Customers must buy the set of three modules as one unit; Makdin Store is not selling the individual modules of the S5+.

In addition to the higher hashrate, the AntMiner S5+ also achieves a better power efficiency than the standard S5. At 0.445J/GH, the S5+ is approximately 13% more efficient than its predecessor.
